Recently popular all over the country - I Want to Be Cinderella - has become the favorite of countless viewers, attracting a large number of viewers. Not only is it addicted to it, the plot is ups and downs, fascinating, and the characters are vivid and vivid, it is deeply loved and praised by the audience..Today, the editor has compiled some content for you about the Korean drama - I Just Want to Be Cinderella - Episodes 1-10 (including the ending).
The Korean drama - I Want to Be Cinderella - tells the story of Cinderella in the 21st century.Moon Cha-min is an arrogant chaebol prince who doesn’t trust people and is also the representative of the Cheongdam Paradise Social Club.He hates women like a stone, but accidentally gets entangled with Shen Zailin, a newcomer who dreams of becoming Cinderella, and gradually understands his feelings.
At the beginning of the story, Shin Jae-lin's father passed away, leaving her, her stepmother Huang So-ra, and her two stepsisters Xiuzhen and Huazhen to depend on each other.Hwang So-ra recalled her relationship with Jae-rim's father. In order to make him more handsome, she did not hesitate to inject Botox.However, as he left, she fell into confusion and helplessness.
Shen Zailin is eager to escape from this home. She feels that her stepmother does not like her much.One day, she accidentally discovered a letter left by her father, but the content made her deeply disappointed.On the reverse side of the letter was a flyer for “Chingtan Paradise”, a social club for the wealthy.Her father had expected her to find a job here and quickly find a wealthy husband.His last wish was for her to marry a rich man instead of working hard and dying young like him.
The CEO of Cheongdam Paradise is Moon Cha Min. He comes from a prominent chaebol family, but because he is the eighth generation, his wealth is rich but not endless.Although business was sluggish, he did not accept new wealthy customers. Instead, he chose to increase employees' salaries by 10% to motivate them.
Shen Zailin met her father in a dream, and she blamed him for giving her wrong advice.Her father told her to be like Cinderella and pursue her dreams bravely.In the dream, her father threw a pumpkin at her, waking her up.At this time, her friend Sun Zhen called and told her that a mutual friend was about to hold a wedding in Qingtan Paradise and had secured invitations for them.
On the wedding day, the bride was a former employee of Qingtan Paradise.Wen Chamin walked into the scene swaggeringly with Chairman Gao's umbrella.When he discovered that the bride's ex-boyfriend was causing trouble, he didn't hesitate to chase him away with an umbrella.He found it hilarious that love would make people do such crazy things.
After the wedding began, Shen Zailin, a girl full of romantic fantasies, imagined that her father could lead her down the aisle like a prince in a fairy tale.Sun Zhen reminds her that marrying a rich man is the only way to win in this game.Secretary Heo is secretly observing the female guests. For Wen Chamin, women are just indifferent existences like marble.When the wedding was coming to an end, Moon Cha Min's Hermès scarf accidentally fell off, but he didn't care.The scarf happened to fly into Shin Jae-rim's arms, and she regarded it as a symbol of good luck.
Back to reality, Mr. Shen’s behavior during his lifetime had a great impact on his family.During his lifetime, he often borrowed money from friends, causing his family to be heavily in debt.Despite this, he still had a kind heart and once vouched for his sister-in-law, but her sister-in-law failed to repay the loan as promised.Eventually, the house was sealed and Shin Jae-rim's family had to move into a small apartment.There, Shin Jae-rim had to share a room with the stubborn Huazhen.
Shen Zailin cherishes the dream of becoming an artist, but the high tuition fees prohibit her.After finding out she was pregnant, her stepmother started teaching belly dancing classes to make a living.Despite fainting from overexertion, she promised Shin Jae-rim that she would take good care of her.In order to repay his stepmother's kindness, Shen Zailin decided to work hard to find a job.She recalled that her father once said that life was like a gamble, so she mustered up the courage to submit a job application to Qingtan Paradise.
In order to increase his competitiveness, Shin Zailin began to learn fitness skills from his elderly neighbors and exercised in the park to stay in shape.On the day of the interview, she even tried to put on her only uniform on an empty stomach.However, on the last day, Huazhen discovered that she was stealing food from the refrigerator.After some struggle, the two decided to sweep away the food.Although this move made Shen Zailin feel a little guilty, she did not give up.She skillfully concealed her puffy face with makeup, put on Soo-jin's designer heels, and confidently headed to Cheongdam Paradise for her interview.
Meanwhile, Moon Cha Min is very annoyed that his manager has left, especially since the other person left him because of his marriage.To fill the void, he plans to hire a new employee who will stick around long enough to make up for the loss he feels.Secretary Heo observed Wen Chamin's behavior from the sidelines and felt that he seemed a little ruthless.However, Moon Cha Min retorted that he is not without compassion, but the way he expresses it is different, and he is also doing charity in his own way.
Shen Zailin went to the office of Cheongdam Paradise with an uneasy mood. Her friend Sun Zhen cheered her on and encouraged her to show her charm to the rich people in the club, just like Cinderella in the fairy tale.Like a glass slipper.Shen Zailin lowered his head to admire the exquisite pair of high heels on his feet, filled with anticipation.However, at this moment, she accidentally kicked her shoe and saw it rolling down the stairs.
Shen Zailin hurriedly caught up, fearing that his shoes would be broken.When she saw Wen Chamin holding her high heels, an inexplicable feeling surged in her heart.She couldn't help but start to imagine that maybe he was the Prince Charming in her life and would lend a helping hand at critical moments.However, fantasy is still fantasy, and reality is often unexpected.
Not all princes are gentle and kind-hearted.For example, Che Min is not such a person.
One time, Jae-lin accurately hit Che Min on the head with a shoe strike. He mistakenly thought that she did it deliberately because she was greedy for his money.The two immediately fell into a fierce argument, and the disgust in each other's hearts grew like weeds.In anger, Zai Lin pushed him down the stairs, but in an instant he felt pity and rescued him.She turned and left proudly, but she never expected that he would appear again as her future boss in the interview room soon.
Apparently, he refused to hire her because of the previous conflict, and she cursed angrily.He hurriedly left with an umbrella in hand, never expecting that the umbrella would become his shield to defend himself against potential plots.
Zai Lin and his friend Sun Jing drank to soothe their sorrows and talked about their respective experiences and helplessness.Although Che Min went out to have fun with her friends, she still couldn't forget Jae Lin.Although he calls her a weirdo, his friends have noticed his special feelings for her.He denied it, but that night, his dream was filled with her figure, and he tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
Zai Lin's life is in trouble, with bills piling up and the future looking bleak.At this time, Che Min's call brought a turn of events, and she was told that she had been hired.He admitted that he only hired her because he was worried that she would continue to curse him.She was ecstatic when she heard the news, and he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable throbbing in his heart at the thought of working with her.For his first day at work, he carefully selected his outfit, but still felt a little at a loss.
In the club, Jae Lin suddenly showed a gentle side, but Che Min appreciated her unvarnished truth more.He felt a twinge of embarrassment when she pointedly pointed out that the design of his belt resembled a chastity belt.In order to understand the true inner thoughts of employees, he designed a game.When Jae-rim screams “Cinderella”, he feels weird and the employees are worried because their exes had Cinderella-like dreams and ended up marrying wealthy clients and then leaving them..
He asked Zailin why he had such an idea, and Zailin confessed that he had indeed dreamed of using this job to marry into a wealthy family.He deeply hated this kind of utilitarian mentality. He wanted to fire her, but he proposed a duel to decide her stay.The two came to the bank of the Han River and decided the outcome based on their drinking capacity.They all confidently believed that they would be the final winners.Zai Lin's stepsisters were talking and laughing at her poor drinking capacity.
When the duel began, Jae Lin tried to stall for time by wrestling with her arms, but her strength was gradually exhausted.She noticed that one of Che Min's nails was missing, and the camera turned to him, only to see him falling alone on the street.He stood up in panic and urged Zai Lin to continue drinking.However, once Zai Lin started drinking, the alcohol was swallowed up like a black hole.On the other hand, Che Min was defeated after just two sips.Although he was tipsy, he still allowed Zailin to stay in his post.
After drinking for three rounds, the two began to talk freely.Cha Min claims that people who are honest about their feelings are often gullible.Zai Lin felt pity when he heard this, but he quickly changed the topic.They continued to drink and have fun, and Che Min was having a great time.However, Zai Lin suddenly felt an urgent need to urinate and was thinking about how to get rid of this difficult boss.She drank it all in an attempt to end the fight as quickly as possible, but it was a bad decision because she couldn't take it anymore.
Cha Min senses her embarrassment, and the two say goodbye dramatically.He vowed not to leave her, and she begged him to leave quickly.He even handed her his umbrella as a shield.He had almost left, but suddenly came back, picked her up and ran to the nearest public toilet.Exhausted, he told her to be strong and face the difficulties, and she crawled into the toilet in embarrassment.
Back to reality, Jae Lin saw Che Min still waiting outside.She was deeply moved by his kindness and bravery, and she was also deeply impressed by him.However, when she awkwardly walked out of the toilet, she did not dare to look at him.He was amused by her embarrassment, but then a girl in fine clothes interrupted them.She walked up to them and introduced herself: “I am Che Min's fiancée.”
She saw Zailin's fiancé Che Min, but she turned and ran away the moment she saw him.The subsequent plot revealed that the engagement between Dan Ah and Cha Min was not out of emotion, but a strategic marriage between companies for profit.Despite this, Dan Ah still hopes that Cha Min can fulfill her fiance's responsibilities to maintain her public image.
At home, Jae-rim feels hurt that Cha Min hid the truth about her single status and unwillingness to get married.Her stepmother Huazhen explained to her that men sometimes deliberately disguise themselves in order to attract women, but this did not eliminate the confusion and fantasy in Lin's heart.She still often fantasizes about Cha Min hugging her tenderly.At the same time, Che Min was tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and could only divert her attention through exercise.However, he could not suppress his desire to hug Zai Lin, and even felt shy because of it.
Shanzhen, as a friend of Zailin, revealed to her that she was recording an audiobook involving erotica and invited Zailin to listen to it.Although Jae-lim said she was interested in such content on YouTube, she declined the offer to read it in person.Dan-ah, on the other hand, seems to be quite rude to her father at home, showing the violent side of her personality.
The next day, at work, Cha Min made a joke about urinating to Jae Lin, but she did not feel relaxed. Instead, she seriously asked him about his fiancée.Cha Min mistook Jae Rim for approaching him for his wealth and was deeply dissatisfied.Jae-rim firmly stated that although she could tolerate a harsh boss for money, she would never date someone she didn't like for money.
After entering work mode, Zai Lin visited various areas in the club, including the children's play area and the popular date lounge.She noticed that any woman who tried to approach Cha Min was coldly rejected by him with an umbrella.At the reception desk, she received a new customer, but was then taken away by Cha Min for so-called “training”.This scene was seen by Dan Ya. She asked the staff why and learned that the reason why Cha Min was so special to Zai Lin was because he believed that Zai Lin was using the club as a springboard for marriage.However, Dan Ah is curious about why Cha Min is so obsessed with Jae Rim.
Then, Cha Min assigned Jae Lin a seemingly impossible task - washing the ivory lace until it was white and flawless.After he left, Danya secretly found Zailin and told her that if she wanted to get married, she could try the Wishing Pavilion.She revealed that her predecessor spent a lot of money through the Wishing Pavilion and finally succeeded in marrying into a wealthy family.
Cha Min seems to be planning to continue causing problems for Jae Lin, threatening to become her “evil stepmother”.However, the staff persuaded him to show mercy to Zai Lin.By chance, Che Min came to the roof and saw Jae Lin dancing and listening to music while drying clothes. Her cute appearance made him feel good about her.He quietly took away an earphone, and a subtle atmosphere developed between the two.
However, at this moment, Shanzhen's audiobook suddenly came from the headphones, and both of them felt very embarrassed.Jae-rim tried to take the headphones back, but accidentally fell down with Cha-min, and she fell on top of him.Che Min angrily called her a “pervert” and refused to assign her any more suitable tasks.Jae Rim responded in her own cute way, saying she had no ill intentions.Cha Min was amused by her reaction, then put the laundry basket on her head and ran away.
After get off work, a tired Zai Lin staggered out of the workplace, but Che Min sneered at her, thinking that she wanted to marry a rich man more than work.However, Jae-rim's anger was quickly quelled by a text message from Sang-cheol, who thanked her for the money she sent, which gave her a sense of satisfaction.
Later, Jae-rim recalls Dan-ah's advice as she tries to get the funds needed to go to the Wishing Pavilion from her stepmother Hwa-jin.However, Huazhen sternly pointed out that Zailin should strive for a better life through study or work instead of relying on others.She criticized Zailin for marrying for money like her father, which made Zailin feel very hurt.Despite this, Jae Lin retorted that at least their parents truly loved each other and that was enough.
Meanwhile, Cha Min goes to visit her father who is seriously ill.He learned that the family was bankrupt and his father was bedridden.In order to save the family's financial situation, they plan to get Cha Min and Dan Ya married, because this marriage will bring them 300 million won in financial support.Her father taught Che Min to learn to ignore women and treat them as lifeless stones, so that she can go further in life.However, when the nurse entered the room, he immediately became attentive and flirted with the nurse, which made Che Sen feel very helpless.
On the other hand, Jae-rim decided to ask her second sister Xiuzhen for help.Xiuzhen is a doctor. Her colleague Dr. Goo is not only rich but also has a good impression of Xiuzhen.Dr. Goo comes up with a plan where he will give Jae-rim a sum of money as a reward if he can get Soo-jin's ring size so that he can buy her a diamond ring.Although the plan was somewhat risky, the operation in Lin went extremely smoothly.She successfully steals Xiuzhen's ring and even thinks that she helped Xiuzhen to some extent because she planned to introduce Xiuzhen to a rich man.
With the money he received from Dr. Goo, Jae-rim successfully arrived at the wishing pavilion hosted by a shaman.She closed her eyes and made a wish devoutly, hoping to marry a rich man.At the same time, Cha Min was listening to audiobooks alone at home, but his thoughts kept drifting to Jae Lin and he couldn't stop missing her.
After returning home, Huazhen expressed doubts and ridicule about the large sum of money that Lin suddenly had.However, the stepmother still provided Zailin with an allowance to show her concern for her.However, Zailin politely refused the offer.As for Xiuzhen, she discovered that her ring was missing and began to suspect that it was Jae Lin.However, Zai Lin had already fled the scene.
The next day, Zai Lin arrived at the work place early, hoping to complete the trivial tasks assigned by Che Min as soon as possible.However, to her surprise, Che Min announced that she could be officially promoted to manager.However, his kindness seemed to end there.He sarcastically states that he is not worried about Lin's future because she will never marry well.However, just when she took a step forward, Che Min was suddenly attracted to her, as if he was moved by some of her qualities.The narrator explains that men like Che Min, who have ignored women for a long time, will occasionally be seduced by a woman's charm.
However, Che Min quickly regained his indifferent attitude, turned around and ran away, claiming that there was an unpleasant smell on Lin's body.Zai Lin couldn't help but start to wonder, did he smell poor?She even tried rubbing soap with her hands in the bathroom, hoping to catch the so-called “smell of wealth”.Finally, she sat alone at the front desk, praying that her wish would come true.The note contained a description of her ideal partner. However, the note suddenly flew up, surprising her.She tried to grab the note but accidentally bumped into a tall, handsome customer.The two looked at each other and smiled, but Che Min, who was standing aside, could only look at them with envy.
Jae Lin is worried about his new client Bai Daohong.Dao Hong has a tall figure and strong muscles, which fully fits the ideal image of “liking big guys” that she sketched on the wish note.Michihiro stumbles upon the note and teases her in a humorous way before immediately apologizing to her.In the process of apologizing, a button on his shirt accidentally fell off. He calmly took out his sewing tools and expertly sewed it back into place.Zai Lin couldn't help but sigh, maybe she had finally found the Prince Charming she had dreamed of.
Originally, the task of leading Dao Hong to visit the company should be undertaken by secretary Xu Yingpei, but Dao Hong volunteered to be accompanied by Zai Lin.This sudden change made Che Min quite unhappy.During the visit, Lin learned that Hong was only thirty years old and already the youngest award-winning filmmaker in history.Dao Hong had high requirements for joining the club, but Zailin decided to do his best to help him achieve this goal.
She hurried into the office and saw Cha Min and Dan Ya getting into a fierce argument.Jae-rim points out without hesitation that Do-hong may be her destined Prince Charming, and says she will keep fighting until Cha-min agrees to let Do-hong join the club.Dan Ya also thinks this is a good proposal. After all, in this way, it will be possible for Jae Lin to get married and resign smoothly.Although Che Min was unhappy, he finally gave in.
Zai Lin carefully planned a farewell party to create a romantic atmosphere for Dao Hong.However, to her surprise, Cha Min appeared with Dao Hong.She tried to persuade Che Min to leave first, but Che Min unexpectedly pushed her into Dao Hong's arms.Dao Hong gently tidied her messy hair, handed her a lollipop, and promised to buy her more of her favorite things.Che Min sarcastically reminded her to tie her hair up, but when she actually did it, he suddenly seemed in a hurry.
Cha Min tries to prevent Jae-rim from attending Do-hong's welcome party and instead arranges for her to plan an exhibition from scratch based on artist D's works.He took the opportunity to take Taekwondo classes, as if to vent his dissatisfaction with Dao Hong.
At the same time, Zailin successfully persuaded the staff and artist D to create a series of exquisite paintings for the upcoming exhibition.However, they are all curious about how Zailin persuaded Cha Min to let Dao Hong become a member. After all, Cha Min has always been picky about the selection of customers.In addition, she also learned from Dao Hong that the umbrella he carried was a treasure passed down from generation to generation and was said to bring good luck.
Jae Lin excitedly shared every detail of the day with the doll her father gave her when she was a child.Although Hua Zhen scoffs at her actions, the quarrel between the two intensifies when Jae Rim shows the lollipop Dao Hong gave her.However, it seems her troubles are far from over, as Soo-jin rejects Dr. Goo's marriage proposal.Dr. Goo threatened Jae Lin and asked her to help him.Faced with this dilemma, Jae-rim firmly tells him that he should be kind to their stepmother, who has a close relationship with Xiuzhen.
After returning to the company, Jae Lin discovered that Che Min was not at her job, which made her complain about her irresponsible and mean boss.At the same time, Che Min was staying alone in an abandoned house, unable to calm down his anger towards Jae Lin.Both of them hope that she can quit this job as soon as possible.However, at this moment, Che Min accidentally discovered a photo, which made him realize the reason why he was attracted to Zailin but couldn't stand her.
As for Zai Lin’s colleague Cai Zai Lin, she accidentally dropped the light bulb and broke it when she was repairing it.Seeing this, Dao Hong quickly took her down from the ladder. This move convinced her that he was her rightful man.However, her illusion of happiness was shattered when artist D suddenly withdrew from the exhibition due to lack of inspiration.She began to wonder if Che Min had deliberately recommended an unreliable artist to ruin her plans.However, due to limited exhibition quota, she could only quickly adjust her mentality and create a painting herself to fill the gap.
At the same time, Cha Min saw Jae Lin in his dream.He admits that he has mixed feelings for her, hating her but also being unable to accept the fact that she is with Do-Hong.Zai Lin keenly pointed out that what he just said had actually exposed his liking for her.On the day of the exhibition, Che Min was impressed by the high quality of the exhibition and finally agreed to let Jae Lin attend the party.However, there was always a question lingering in his mind, was it too late for them?He really hopes that she can leave with Dao Hong, because he knows that if she stays, he may no longer be able to control his emotions.
The party finally kicked off, and Jae Lin made a stunning appearance in a beautiful dress.Cha Min's eyes were firmly attracted to her, but when she walked towards Do Hong, his smile gradually disappeared.The two had a lot of fun at the party until Danya introduced the chaebol heir Li Na to Daohong.Li Na saw through Jae Lin's motive for letting Dao Hong become a member at a glance and ridiculed her mercilessly.
Li Na was extremely shrewd and could see through Zai Lin's motives behind letting Dao Hong become a member at a glance. She mocked Zai Lin mercilessly.Then, she ordered Zai Lin to get her a drink, specifically asking for mint chocolate.Zai Lin didn't think much and obediently went to get the drink and came back.
However, Li Na hated the smell of mint. She suddenly got angry and slapped Zai Lin hard.Zai Lin stumbled and fell to the ground, accidentally pulling Li Na to the ground as well.Both of them were covered in fallen chocolate, and the scene was very embarrassing.
Upon seeing this, Dao Hong quickly stepped forward to help Li Na and handed her a handkerchief.He promised Li Na that Jae Lin would be responsible for cleaning it all up since it was her fault.Watching Dao Hong's leaving figure, Zai Lin's heart was filled with loss and pain.When Dao Hong finally turned around and reached out to her, she stubbornly refused.
At this moment, Che Min stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Zailin.He gently told her not to make that mistake again, but that he did like mint chocolate.Everyone present speculated whether Cha Min's words meant that he was confessing to Jae Lin.
However, just as the atmosphere reached its climax, Danya suddenly stepped forward and slapped Cha Min unceremoniously.
Kissing is just the beginning, not the end of happiness.In the scene, Cha Min witnessed Li Na and Dao Hong's disdainful attitude toward Jae Lin. He stepped forward resolutely, handed her coat to Jae Lin, and led her to his office.
In the office, Cha Min opened up about his inability to tolerate others bullying his employees.He half-jokingly mentioned that he seemed to have loose teeth from anger, while Jae-rim confessed that she has anger management issues.Jae-rim suggested that Cha-min should visit Dan-ah, but Cha-min bluntly stated that there was only a business agreement between them and that he was more concerned about Jae-lim than Dan-ah.
Later, in the corridor, Cha Min ran into Do Hong.Do-hong arrogantly points out that people like them shouldn't lower their status to date someone as poor as Jae-rim.Cha Min cleverly misinterpreted the meaning and asked Do Hong whether he had a good impression of him.The scene goes back to when Dao Hong was in poverty. His lover left him because of the temptation of money and chose to spend the rest of his life with a rich man.
Back in the corridor, Zai Lin apologized to Li Na, but Li Na was sarcastic, thinking that only poor people would apologize unprincipled, even if they did not make a mistake.She asserts that this is why Lin's value has never been improved.Faced with these harsh words, Zailin felt deeply that his status could not be changed and couldn't help but burst into tears.At this moment, Cha Min stepped forward and kissed Jae Lin resolutely in front of everyone.
Outdoors, Jae-rim is confused by Cha Min's behavior and wonders why Cha Min would help her, after all he said he hates her.Cha Min explained affectionately that he just wanted her to feel the warmth of being loved.However, Zailin mistakenly thought this was out of sympathy, and the two had a fierce dispute.Cha Min patiently explains that this kiss will not only make Jae Rim look more attractive, but may even attract a CEO like him.Although Cha Min's explanation was full of sincerity, Jae Lin still took a taxi and left angrily.However, on the way home, she recalled the kiss over and over in her mind and couldn't help but laugh secretly.She even asked the taxi driver if a man could kiss without emotion, and the driver began to ramble on about how to punish playboys.
At the same time, Cha Min was pondering over the meaning of that kiss in his mind.On the other side, Dan Ya was furious at home and yelled at her uncles who were having dinner.The uncles responded in a joking tone, laughing at her that a little gangster could be scared, and vowed to find out who made her so angry.
Jae-lim returns home to find Dr. Goo bringing guests to visit her stepmother in an attempt to win Soo-jin's favor.The scene was chaotic for a time, Xiuzhen had no interest in Dr. Gu, and Su La left all the food to Jae Lin.Huazhen secretly tasted the delicious food while feeding Zailin.
In order to vent his inner emotions, Cha Min went to a Taekwondo class.He candidly shared his past, in which his mother took away all the money like Cinderella and divorced his father.However, he steadfastly refuses to repeat his father's mistakes and is trapped in the shadow of the past.
On the second day of work, the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward.Cha Min tried to take the kiss lightly, but Jae Lim was so offended that she even compared the kiss to a disgusting bug.However, the truth is not that simple.Cha Min was worried that her actions would appear too entangled, while Jae Rim was heartbroken that the kiss didn't touch Cha Min as deeply as she expected.The staff tried to find out the truth of the incident from their mouths, but both of them chose to remain silent and avoid talking.
At this moment, Daohong suddenly appeared and asked Zailin about the kiss.Jae Lim responded wittily, saying that Cha Min had a habit of kissing telephone poles after drinking.However, Dao Hong obviously did not believe her words.He enthusiastically invited Jae-rim to his studio and even gave her an exquisite hairpin.As he was leaving, he happened to meet Cha Min and firmly stated that he would never back down from this competition.
Cha Min's heart was in turmoil, because he knew that this kiss was a carefully planned move on his part - it successfully aroused Do Hong's desire for something he couldn't get.However, Cha Min was also confused. He didn't understand why there was an inexplicable anger in his heart when he thought that Jae Lin might choose to be with Do Hong.At the same time, Zailin was also very confused and didn't understand why Daohong would show a friendly attitude to her again.Guo Zhen, a staff member on the side, insisted that Cha Min had special feelings for Jae Lin because they had never seen the CEO be so uncharacteristic.
Zailin didn't believe Guozhen's speculation at first.However, an urge arose in her heart to test Cha Min.So, she decided to visit Cha Min in person.Facing Jae Lin's arrival, Cha Min pretended to be relaxed on the surface, and even sneered at the hairpin given by Dao Hong.But when he heard that Zai Lin was about to go to Dao Hong's studio, he suddenly felt a strong feeling of jealousy in his heart.
Seeing Cha Min's reaction made Lin's suspicion even more certain.She suddenly made a bold request - she hoped to kiss Cha Min again to confirm some doubts in her heart.This sudden request made Cha Min panic. He stood there at a loss, with a complicated expression on his face.
After some inner struggle and entanglement, Cha Min finally agreed to Zailin's request.He slowly closed his eyes, waiting for the long-awaited kiss.And Zai Lin slowly approached him, the distance between the two shortening little by little...
Dan Ah is fighting her instincts and trying to avoid Cha Min's kiss.Not only that, but she was forcibly taken to the studio by him and offered to be her fairy godmother, choosing the right clothes for her.In the store, he was so enthusiastic that Danya mistakenly thought he was not interested in her.
The two quarreled as usual because he disdained her fashion sense and bought her his favorite clothes without permission.In the shopping bag, he left a letter saying that she should dress him in her favorite clothes because he was the only one who could stand her poor fashion sense.Alas, this is another classic plot to tease someone you have a crush on.
However, Cha Min could not stop thinking about the second kiss that almost happened, and his heart was filled with regret.He originally planned to interrupt her date at the studio as a fairy godmother, but accidentally dialed Yun Bei's phone.The secretary shares a new piece of gossip, calling Michiro a playboy who slept with every woman he ever dated at the club.Danya, who heard this, was worried and hurried to Dao Hong's studio.
In the studio, Michiro admitted that his parents have always supported him and helped him pursue his dreams.He will also give Danya a helping hand as she is storyboarding his next film.Dan Ah is always concerned about Cha Min, but he tells her not to mention her boss again because he already has feelings for her.When he was about to kiss her, she chose to retreat.At this time, they heard a noise and it turned out to be Cha Min's younger brother sneaking in.
The two brothers got into a heated argument, seemingly because Cha Min had sent money to his family and his younger brother had quickly squandered it all.The younger brother reveals to Cha Min that Do Hong has been lying and that he actually made a fortune by writing BL (gay male) novels.Cha Min angrily scolded his brother to shut up, thinking there was nothing wrong with it, and then left angrily.Daohong was still ashamed and begged Danya to keep the secret because it was difficult for the upper class to accept people like them.Dan Ya advised him to be loyal to himself and then left.
Cha Min was waiting outside, and when he saw Dan Ya, he immediately called her number.Danya was confused about the man's thoughts and hung up the phone angrily.Cha Min was eager to know the whole story, so he waited at the door of the company early the next morning, but Dan Ya walked past him as if he didn't see anything.
At this time, Dan Ya appeared in front of Cha Min in the form of an apology, apologizing to him for the previous kiss.She explained that they had made a bet to help Dao Hong pursue true love, as if watching a fun dating show.However, Dan Ah also expressed dissatisfaction with Cha Min's transgression.Cha Min retorted that she had no objection to this and that his kissing skills were quite good.When alone, Danya was furious. She tried to calm down her emotions by reciting the names of luxury brands, but to no avail. In the end, she could only vent her anger by screaming “Prada”.
Unfortunately, Cha Min is deeply affected by Dan Ah's words as he realizes that Do Hong only sees her as a plaything.He observed her thoughtful look and was worried that she might have encountered misfortune at Daohong's house.Danya accused him of teasing and laughing at her.Cha Min apologized to her and explained that he just wanted to help her, but she warned him not to interfere in her personal affairs again.
At the same time, Dan Ya was furious with his uncles because of the Cha Min incident and ordered them to go to the other side of the city to buy hot bread.Eager to become their own bosses, the uncles decide to please Dan Ah by kidnapping Cha Min.
The kidnapping descends into chaos, with Lin accidentally spraying herself with pepper spray as she struggles and her hungry uncles tying her up and hurrying off.Zai Lin was in trouble and tried to call 911 for help through Siri. However, Siri could not recognize her voice and the call was accidentally dialed to her friend Sun Jing.
It turned out that Zai Lin was supposed to meet Sun Jing after get off work.After hearing the news, Sun Jing was extremely anxious and hurried to Cheongdam-dong, where she happened to meet Cha Min.Although Cha Min struggled in his heart, he still tried hard to restrain himself from interfering in Zailin's personal affairs, and just stayed by Sun Jing's side silently.Just when Sun Jing was trying to express her closeness to Cha Min, Zai Lin's phone call came in.She panicked and described the location she was in, which was an abandoned soju factory, and Cha Min happened to know something about this place.
As he rushes to the scene, a flashback reveals that Cha Min had experienced a similar kidnapping when he was a young child.Faced with the current predicament, the uncles proposed that they would let Jae-lin leave as long as she promised to leave Cheongdam-dong.However, Jae-Lin resolutely refused their request, knowing full well how difficult it was to find a job (for a legitimate reason).When her uncles saw this, they threatened to shave off her hair in an attempt to force her to submit, but Zailin finally gave in.
At this moment, Cha Min appeared in time. He waved his umbrella and knocked the two men to the ground.At the end of the sixth episode, he hugged the frightened Zai Lin tightly, bringing her a long-lost sense of security.
Zailin decided to take action against the men who tried to convince others with reason and tied them up one by one.They later revealed their true intentions, admitting that they just wanted to teach women like Jae-rim a lesson.Faced with such insults, Jae-rim angrily shaved off their eyebrows and warned that if they dared to trouble her again, she would make the video of the entire incident public.
After Lin and Cha Min left the scene, she realized that Cha Min cared about her, and she couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart, and tears came to her eyes.Cha Min apologized for the trouble he may have caused her before, and she responded in a humorous way, saying that this is what she has to endure as a “femme fatale”, which instantly resolved the tense atmosphere.Cha Min suddenly appeared in front of her, which surprised her, and Cha Min revealed that he had always been alert to emergencies.He recounted how he was kidnapped by his nanny as a child but managed to escape with an umbrella, which is why he always carries an umbrella with him.
Jae-rim teased himself that even a police baton couldn’t compare to Cha Min’s umbrella and expressed his gratitude to him.Cha Min's feelings for her grew deeper and deeper, and he struggled internally whether to confess to her, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
Jae Rim thought that Cha Min had a crush on her, but he never expressed it because he was not perfect enough.What she longs for is someone who can accept all of her.However, when she returned home, she found a quarrel going on at home.The family learned that Dr. Koo paid Jae-rim a reward to get close to Soo-jin, but they also discovered that Dr. Koo also flirted with other women, and his real purpose was just to marry a doctor.
Huazhen accuses Jae-rim of being selfish, while So-ra adds fuel to the fire, accusing her of misleading Jae-rim.Zailin was devastated by the accusations and apologized for trying to fit in with the family.Hua Zhen slapped her in the face for her shamelessness, which led to Zai Lin's decision to move out of the house.
Cha Min questioned Dan Ya, and Dan Ya pretended to issue a kidnapping order to show her majesty.However, her behavior backfired and Cha Min warned her that he would break up with her if she crossed the line again.In anger, Danya lashed out at her uncles.
As for Zai Lin, she moved back to her previous home, a remote place away from the hustle and bustle of the city.It was a dilapidated place with almost no living facilities, and she spent the whole night in the cold.The next morning, she was late due to exhaustion.Cha Min was worried after learning about it and decided to let all employees learn self-defense techniques.Of course, Zai Lin was not to be outdone and decided to compete with him.He demonstrated a move and she immediately countered, demonstrating what she had learned.The two began to push and hit each other, and the atmosphere was tense and intense.
Just then, Dao Hong suddenly appeared, interrupting their contest, and invited Zai Lin to a date in their studio.This made Cha Min feel jealous and left angrily.Do Hong expressed his feelings to Jae Rin in private, saying that the reason he liked her was that she could accept everything about him.He still invited her to work on his next screenplay.However, Jae-rim is confused by this because although Do-hong accepts her on the surface, she is unaware of his true intentions.Cha Min's love for her was even more obvious, but he never expressed it.
In order to test Cha Min, Jae Lin decided to take him home to see if he could adapt to her living environment.The two began to regret their decision, but luckily the car owner had prepared camping supplies and they decided to camp outside the house.Under the stars, they began to talk deeply.Jae Lim revealed that she didn't think her stepfather's family was that bad, but that she herself felt incompetent, greedy and trouble-loving.Cha Min comforts her gently, saying that she is just a child who longs for love but has been troubled by past hatred.He hopes to help her out of this predicament.As Lin begins to waver, she realizes that she may have pushed away those who truly wanted to love her, such as So-ra.
At this moment, Dan Ah called, but Cha Min chose not to answer.Jae-rim suddenly understands that Cha Min avoids her not because of their class differences, but because of his own inner complex emotions and dilemmas.
At the same time, Hua Zhen was furious because of Dr. Goo's deception, and she beat Dr. Goo severely.Dr. Koo tried to bribe her family with beef, but Lin actually bought all the ingredients and told Dr. Koo to pretend he bought them because she thought the family would be uncomfortable with Dr. Koo's generosity.Huazhen was very angry at Dr. Gu's behavior. She decided to return the thousand yuan and sever ties with him.
As the snow fell heavier and heavier, Zailin and Chemin decided to go inside to escape the cold.They find only one blanket to keep out the cold, and Cha Min suggests she go to his house because he doesn't think they should spend the night together.Even though a blizzard warning was issued outside, Che insisted on his decision.Jae Lin feels sorry, but she jokes that the house is too old and could collapse at any time, possibly freezing them to death.This joke became the decisive factor, because Cha Min's rich imagination made him decide to take her to his home.
At his house, Zai Lin wanted to take a hot bath to relax, but the complicated faucets left her helpless.She reluctantly called Cha Min for help, but Cha Min fell because he was distracted on the way there.She tries to help him and they both fall down and accidentally kiss.However, this is just a fantasy in Cha Min's mind.In reality, they blushed in embarrassment due to the unexpected kiss, and Cha Min tried to hide his heartbeat and ran out in a hurry.
At this moment, Zai Lin received a call from Hua Zhen, inviting her home for dinner.It turned out that her family was very worried about her, and Sura even made fresh side dishes specially for her.
Che Min sincerely invites Jae Rim to go to Rin Rim to enjoy ramen and take a break.Cha Min feels guilty when Jae Rim mentions that her family is trying to get back together with her.He solemnly promised to give her a chance to leave and free her by changing places.However, inside he was annoyed that his “Cinderella” had chosen to eat meat rather than stay with him.
When Lin returned home and saw her family members drunk, she felt deeply guilty.She apologizes to her family, admitting that her past behavior was mean and uncaring because she never truly considered them family.So-ra assures her that they are always a family and blames Soo-jin for being depressed about choosing the wrong partner.After Lin firmly stated that she would accompany them, Huazhen gave her an affectionate hug.However, that night, Lin couldn't suppress his longing for Cha Min in his heart.
At the same time, Cha Min's father deliberately sent himself to the hospital not because he was really sick, but to attract attention.Cha Min tried his best to appease his father, but his father was still worried about his wife leaving him.He angrily claimed that women only pretended to love them but were actually taking advantage of them.
In a flashback, we witness Cha Min learning that his mother had an affair and left him.He tried to chase his mother, but fell and injured his finger.
At this moment, Dao Hong came to the club with producer Lily Cho.Everyone was busy decorating Christmas decorations, but Lily deliberately avoided the people in the car.Meanwhile, Dan Ah and Do Hong notice Cha Min staring at Jae Rim.Cha Min was upset by his father's words and handed Cha Min a fortune cookie with the words "You will get married soon" written on it.
Later, Dan Ah deliberately keeps Jae Rim busy for fun and insults her, claiming that neither Cha Min nor Do Hong is good enough for her.Jae-rim tries to stay calm, but recalls Cha-min's concern for her, and she challenges Dan-ah.Danya angrily ran to Daohong and complained.Dao Hong angrily reveals that he likes Jae Rim.At this point, Cha Min refuses to listen to Jae Rim's explanation of her relationship with Do Hong out of jealousy.
Jae Rim wanted to express his feelings to Cha Min, but Cha Min remembered his father's words.He accuses her of taking advantage of Michiro and doubts her sincerity.She was deeply saddened and left angrily.Cha Min was shocked by his words, but Do Hong appeared at this moment and boasted.Cha Min punched Do Hong angrily, and the two immediately got into a fierce fight.
The farce intensified, leading to Jae-rim beating Cha Min, and Lily hitting Do-hong by mistake.Lily's original intention was to hit a taxi driver, but no one noticed.Cha Min is annoyed with Jae Rim for not taking his side and confused by her hot and cold streaks.In order to apologize, Lily and Do Hong took Jae Rim out for a drink, while Cha Min drank alone to relieve his sorrow.He himself is confused because he likes her but can't be with her.
While Do Hong was sleeping, Lily confessed her identity to Jae Rin - she was Cha Min's mother.At this point, the whole story finally came to light.It turned out that Lily's mother-in-law hated her and kicked her out of the house.In order to ensure that Mr. Moon and Cha Min never find her, the matriarch fabricates a story to slander Lily as a greedy Cinderella who stole the Moon family's money and ran away with her lover.
When the driver fell down and was injured, Lily tried to stop the vehicle, but the driver ignored her.Later, with the help of her nanny, she tried to find Cha Min, but was discovered by her mother-in-law.Mother-in-law told Cha Min that he had been kidnapped, and Lily was helpless.It wasn't until she became a successful businessman that she finally plucked up the courage to return.
In the hospital, Xiuzhen overheard a private conversation between two nurses and mentioned that Dr. Gu was preparing a marriage proposal. This shocked her because the marriage proposal was actually for her.Dr. Gu walked up to her, expressed his love affectionately, and hoped to make up for her past pain through this proposal.He told her that she could depend on him at will and that he would do anything for her.To add to the romantic atmosphere, they also had an impromptu rap competition. Dr. Gu took the opportunity to loudly declare his love for Xiuzhen, and Xiuzhen was moved by his sincerity and responded to his love with singing.Although there was still a trace of anger in her heart, Dr. Gu's efforts finally won her heart. The two looked at each other and smiled, and all misunderstandings and barriers disappeared at this moment.
On the other hand, Jae-rim finally understands Cha Min's feelings. She wants to make up for her past mistakes and treat him well.She invited Cha Min to have dinner, but this was actually Lily's elaborate plan to meet Cha Min.When Lily told Cha Min the truth about all this, she chose to leave silently, leaving the two of them alone.However, what makes Cha Min heartbroken is that it took Jae Rim so long to come back to him.He questions Jae-rim's motives, thinking she just wants something from him, and storms out of the restaurant in anger.At this time, Lin Zheng was waiting quietly where Che Min might appear.
When Cha Min saw Jae Lin, he emotionally vented his dissatisfaction and pain.He accuses Jae-rim of crossing his line, ranting that if his mother really loved him, she wouldn't have let him suffer for so long.He doubts the existence of love, and even if it does exist, he cannot see it.Jae-rim hugs Cha-min tenderly, and she firmly tells him that love is real and that he just needs to feel his mother's love for him.Her words were like a stream of warmth, warming Cha Min's cold heart.
Determined to help Cha Min get out of his inner haze, Jae Lin chose to return to his mother and listen to all her past.After fully understanding his mother's experience, he returned to Zai Lin and asked her for a warm hug.Afterward, they returned to the club to dine together.Although Cha Min was happy to see his mother, his mother's past hurt his father and he could not forgive easily.However, when the conversation turned to their respective dreams, Jae-rim revealed that her original dream was to become an artist.
However, the cruel reality made her gradually give up this dream, and instead hoped to marry into a wealthy family like Cinderella, because she felt that she had nothing.Cha Min objected to this and strongly praised her talent and uniqueness, but Jae Lin was still immersed in his own loss and self-blame.They missed each other and eagerly looked forward to their reunion the next day.
While at work, a child accidentally splashed water on them, and Cha Min immediately used an umbrella to cover Jae Rim.Before teasing him, she asked him to hand over his umbrella because she thought he was strong enough to face the storm alone.After a moment's hesitation, he handed the umbrella to her, and when she complimented him, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.However, their sweet moment didn't last long.Dan Ah spots Cha Min picking out a gift for Jae Rim, which makes her jealous.In order to prevent further development between Jae Rim and Cha Min, she threatened to destroy Jae Rim.
In order to protect the one he loves, Cha Min reluctantly agreed to marry Dan Ya.Looking at the heartbroken Zai Lin, Danya felt proud.At this moment, Dao Hong appeared in time and proposed to take Lin to Berlin so that she could restart her career as an artist there.At the same time, Cha Min fell into deep depression.Dan-ah tries to get him to try on wedding dresses, but gets furious every time he shows any enthusiasm.
Cha Min had no choice but to point out that she was still beautiful even if he didn't say it.The sad Danya went to her father to cry, and his father was confused by this.After some reflection, Danya finally understands that she is beautiful enough to find someone who truly loves her.In another corner, poor Jae-rim is still crying for Cha Min.At this time, Xiuzhen and Dr. Gu went home together.Soo-jin clarifies that Dr. Gu is not flirting with other women and is just practicing before proposing to them.Although Huazhen has a strong heart, she still accepts the fact that Dr. Gu is a family member.Alone in the room, Jae-rim feels depressed and lost because she is confused about Cha Min's hot and cold feelings.Dr. Gu invites her to dinner, and she takes the opportunity to ask him how he successfully tracked down Xiuzhen.
Dr. Gu admitted that Xiuzhen was his dream and half-jokingly said that he was a good person.The next day, Cha Min suddenly announced a holiday for employees, which confused Jae Lin.Encouraged by her secretary, she decided to visit Cha Min.She originally planned to express her feelings to him out loud, but all her plans came to nothing when she saw the scene of Cha Min being beaten.They ended up getting into a heated argument.She confronts him about why he's acting so cold and asks him if he would be relieved if she chose to leave with Michiro.Cha Min admitted that he had never been sincere to her and was only helping her realize Cinderella's dream.To prove his frivolity and ruthlessness, he even kissed her in Lin.An angry Zai Lin slapped him in the face and fled the scene.
The flashback scene shows that Cha Min gave Jae Lin a ring as a gift.At that moment Dan-ah’s father and his goons arrive on the scene and demolish Cheongdam-dong.Dan Ah's father beat Cha Min for making his daughter sad.After Cha Min left, his father rushed to the scene and Mr. Moon made an "I told you so" comment to Cha Min, but Cha Min refused to accept it and pointed out that Lily still loved them deeply.
Mr. Moon claims that he was fooled and decides to teach Cha Min a lesson - he asks Cha Min to cut ties with him which means Cha Min will lose all his money and Cheongdamdong's support.They will then see if Lily will take in her bankrupt son.Mr. Moon is convinced that Lily will not take him in and says that no one loves Cha Min anymore.At this moment, Cha Min saw the shawl fallen in the forest and cried sadly because he just wanted her to be happy.Jae Lin fell into self-doubt and believed that he was not cute enough.
After Lin Jae received Cha Min's letter, he couldn't help crying.In the letter, Cha Min frankly told her that she was not a Cinderella in the traditional sense, but a persevering team member.Looking back at the memory, we witnessed the scene of Lin's mother leaving, and after her father passed away, she faced family changes alone, feeling deeply that she did not belong to this reorganized family.
However, Cha Min's words were like a beacon, illuminating her heart.He made her realize that her pain stemmed from her inability to love herself.She recalls her childhood dream of being as brave and fearless as Prince Charming.She regained her composure and prepared to face the new day.However, a call from secretary Heo broke the tranquility, telling her that the club had been closed and her job faced an uncertain future.
In Lin's inner struggle and choice, she firmly rejected Dao Hong's overtures.She expressed her apology to him because her heart already belonged to another person, and expressed her sincere admiration for Dao Hong's BL novel creation.She knows that Hongzeng has given her great help, but she firmly believes that she can find new job opportunities.However, the reality was not what she expected. Most positions required applicants to provide a portfolio, which put her in a dilemma.Still, she finished the storyboard for Michiro's latest film, but didn't ask him for a copy.
As she walks alone, she can't help but think of Cha Min.He seemed to be everywhere, and no matter how hard she tried to get rid of him, his presence always lingered in her mind.During a walk, she even used Cha Min's umbrella to drive away an annoying couple, and began to wonder if he had nowhere to go.She fantasizes about women giving generously to him because of his good looks.
However, her thoughts are interrupted when she finds herself back at her old club.She witnesses someone rummaging through the box and fights back without hesitation using Cha Min's umbrella.However, when she saw the other person's face clearly, she found that it was Cha Min himself.He's looking for the engagement ring that was lost when Dan-ya's father raided the club.
At this moment, Zai Lin made up his mind.She helps Cha Min up and frankly tells him about her long-standing feelings.Her confession shocked Cha Min because he no longer had the wealth and status he had in the past.However, Zailin firmly stated that they could be two poor people in love.Cha Min was touched by her true feelings and kissed her passionately.They poured out their love for each other and went through this difficult time together.
In the end, Cha Min put the engagement ring on Jae Lim's hand and apologized to her because he was not the prince charming in her heart.However, Zailin didn't care. She expressed her willingness to become his prince charming and the breadwinner of his family.She invited him to dinner and brought him back to her home.Her stepfather's family treated him warmly, even leaving space for them to be alone.
In Lin's room, they kissed passionately.Cha Min asks if they should go to his place, however, Jae Im is surprised to find that he is not homeless.In fact, he just followed her back home because he couldn't stand missing her.
The next morning, Cha Min was embarrassed when his stepfather's family discovered that he was sleeping with Jae Lin.At the breakfast table, after her stepsister Huazhen learned that his favorite dish was the same as hers, the two actually started a “foodie” competition.
Additionally, we witnessed Cha Min’s reconciliation with his father, Mr. Moon Wol.He went to visit his father and expressed his determination to still love him even if they were disowned.He encouraged his father to let go of his past self-pity and spend the rest of his life with the one he loved.After Cha Min leaves, we witness the arrival of Mr. Moon Wol’s ex-wife Lily.Although Mr. Wenyue pretended to be angry on the surface, he was happy for her arrival in his heart.In the end, he decided to leave the business to Cha Min so that he could focus on his happy life with Lily.
As the story progresses, we see Cha Min’s ex-girlfriend Dan Ah take extreme action to find new love.She seeks out a wizard in hopes of finding a loyal and handsome boyfriend.However, when she sees Jae-Lin's amulet, she realizes that her wish never came true, as the amulet remains there, symbolizing the unfinished dream of her past love.However, to her, this is no longer important, because she has found the “Prince Charming” that she thinks belongs to her.
So, did Jae Lin get the happy ending she longed for?The answer is yes.In this chapter of the story, Jae-rim is contacted by a channel producer who offers her an exciting animation project after seeing the storyboards she created for Michiro.This is undoubtedly great news for her who has been pursuing her dream.She excitedly ran to tell Cha Min the good news. At this moment, she finally understood the true meaning of what her father told her before his death: You must find a lover to succeed.
Time jumps to six months later, and we see Jae-Lin not only succeeding at work, but also finding new happiness in life.She is taking careful care of her stepmother Sura, who has given birth to a lovely girl, bringing new life and hope to the family.At the same time, Jae-rim and Cha Min also rented an apartment together and started their life together.Although Cha Min sometimes gets angry because Jae Rim is too focused on work and neglects him, he always understands and supports her.With Lin's company and care, their relationship became stronger and happier.
